Hey there, daddy-o. We're what you call Beatniks. Cool it, cool it, let me explain. You'll often see us wearing shady sunglasses, black sweaters and pants, a beret, sandals, with women wearing leotards. We carry bongos, read edgy poetry and banned novels, and listen to modern Bebop jazz at smoky nightclubs. We try out marijuana and free love, dabble in avant-garde art, and discuss left-wing politics, Buddhism, and enlightenment. We were probably, like, the badass of our time because we are so hip, but this isn't The '50s anymore, dig? So if you'll excuse me, I have to cut out now.
In the United States, Beatniks were the counter-culture movement par excellence of The '50s. Beginning in a cluster of coffeeshops and bookstoresnote Some of them, incredibly, are still there. in San Francisco's North Beach district, the Beat movement eschewed cookie-cutter Fifties conformity and enforced happiness in favor of the lived, authentic experience.
The depiction of the Beatnik in popular culture was designed by their detractors, and is a Flanderization of the hangers-on who attached themselves to the Beat movement—essentially the hipsters of the 1950s.note much like the stereotype Hippie is a caricature of the "Summer of Love" runaways and seekers who attached themselves to real psychedelic, art and political movements. With this in mind, it's not surprising that none of the real members of The Beat Generation (a term coined by Jack Kerouac, meaning "beatific") actually conform to the Beatnik stereotype, but that might just be because Reality Is Unrealistic.

Let's Go Luna!: The episode "Dig It Daddy-O" takes place in San Francisco and involves Andy getting involved in the local beatnik culture. It has all the typical beatnik tropes like sunglasses, berets, slam poetry, and the slang (ex: "square" as an insult towards boring people).

A Bucket of Blood is a horror comedy by Roger Corman that wasn't as successful as Little Shop of Horrors, but it's a great beatnik movie, made in 1959, with the beatnik setting unselfconscious and authentic, since it's the present day.

Looney Tunes:
The already out of trend "Cool Cat" from the late Looney Tunes shorts. He was made in the late 60's when Beatniks were more common in the late fifties. An obvious attempt to look in-touch with current fashions that failed spectacularly for being incredibly dated. He only appeared in 6 shorts and is mostly forgotten today.
The Foghorn Leghorn cartoon "Banty Raids" puts him against a Beatnik Bantam rooster, who serenades the chickens on his farm with rock n' roll music.
The "Three Little Bops," a standalone short from 1957 recasts the fairy tale pigs as a trio with the Big Bad Wolf ruining things by blowing his horn. Narrated by Stan Freberg, the short has a cool jazz score by Shorty Rogers. It also features an early example of someone tracing a "square" in the air with their fingers.

Thaddeus Gammelthorpe [[W esternAnimation/Hey Arnold (aka, "Curly")]] adopts this kind of look as an adult—he's still pretty eccentric as an adult but has long since mellowed out from when he, Arnold and the rest of their old friends/classmates were in elementary school (he apparently had a bunch of counseling in middle and high school). Also as an adult, Thaddeus becomes an extremely successful artist/photographer—he also ends up marrying Rhondanote According to Helga in "The Wedding Day" (the one-shot that's about when she and Arnold got married), Curly and Rhonda started dating in high school and people were arguably more shocked by them becoming a couple than they were by Arnold and Helga becoming a couple, with whom he has a daughter named Courtneynote She's described as looking like a younger of her mom, but inherited a lot of her dad's eccentricities.

Spigot from Jerkcity, albeit only in appearance. His official Leitmotif is cool jazz, he smokes a lot of weed, he once informs Pants that 'A "KEY" IS BEATNIK FOR "MARIJUANA JOINT"', and he does occasionally read poetry, but like all characters in the strip he's far more likely to be seen shouting obscene homoerotic gibberish about dongs.

Despite the title, The Beatniks (riffed on by an episode of MST3K) has absolutely nothing to do with beatniks. Apparently, the writers of that film believed that "beatnik" meant something along the lines of "delinquent" or "hoodlum".
Village of the Giants did, though.

In Grim Fandango, there's a beatnik bar called the Blue Casket containing some very hip skeletons. Manny can get up on stage and read seemingly random poetry to them. He also refers to them as 'Deadbeats'. The Blue Casket's owner, Olivia Ofrenda, definitely fits the trope herself, being big on poetry readings and wearing an Artsy Beret.

Beatniks were portrayed for laughs on episodes of The Beverly Hillbillies, Make Room For Daddy (the long-running Danny Thomas sitcom) and, memorably, on Petticoat Junction — visiting an espresso shop in the city, Kate and the girls listen to recitations of surreal Beat poetry, and then Kate takes the stage and recites "Mairzy Doats" in the same solemn, intense style. She gets a standing ovation.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 did a few episodes on late 50s/early 60s films that focused on Beatniks and vilified them as The New Rock & Roll: Daddy-O, The Rebel Set, and obviously The Beatniks. The latter even prompted Joel and the bots to do a sketch explaining why the protagonists of the film did not qualify as Beatniks.
Off Beat Cinema, a movie show in the same vein as Mystery Science Theater 3000, is hosted by three beatnik characters (Maxwell Truth, Bird the Painter, and The Mysterious Zelda) at the fictional Hungry Ear Coffeehouse.

The Cat Piano: Apart from the narration being recited as an epic beat poem, the city itself is also populated with them. Some cats can be seen wearing berets, playing the bongos, dancing to jazz music and the like. The narrator may be one as well, though his appearance is a bit more laid-back. Also, a rather prominent cat is sporting a beret, square-framed glasses, and sweater during several shots in the climax.

The Optimists: Episode 9 of this Russian TV series opens in an extremely stereotypical 1960 beatnik cafe in New York. The beat poet who is performing on the stage is reciting the English translation of Pokrovsky's poem about Galya, which was printed in "The Village Voice". This starts off a whole story arc as a KGB man was in the audience, and the KGB starts investigating this forbidden literature that was smuggled to America.

The Incredibles DVD includes a bonus feature "The Adventures of Mr. Incredible and Friends," a poorly done cartoon featuring Mr. Incredible and Frozone—who is lighter-skinned than he really is, and speaks in a forced 'hip' manner. On the commentary track, Frozone complains that he sounds like a beatnik.

Sam's grandmother from Danny Phantom was one in her youth, therefore being more accommodating to Sam's Eco-Goth ways than her parents who are a pair of '50s-esque Stepford Smilers.

A Brodax-era Popeye the Sailor (TV Series) cartoon "Coffee House" had Olive adapting a beatnik lifestyle. She goes to a coffee house with Brutus, who has also gone beatnik reading poetry such as "Ode to an Onion." Popeye gets into the swing of things after eating "cultured" spinach.

Beret Girl from An Extremely Goofy Movie, who is introduced performing slam poetry at a coffee house. Her behavior rubbed off on her boyfriend, PJ, too, after his combination between a Hidden Depths reveal, successfully being caught by her, and massive Character Development.

Dean from The Iron Giant. He runs a junkyard, but spends his free time making sculptures out of scrap (which the Giant treats as food). He listens to jazz and drinks espresso, but dresses more like a greaser than a stereotypical Beatnik. Kent Mansley even calls him a Beatnik, disparagingly.

Jeb, the Mechanical Beatnik, is one of the minigames you can fiddle with in Total Distortion. If you use him, he spouts completely random words in a rhythmic fashion in a parody of beat poetry. The best part is he comes with a warning label.

In an episode of Spongebob Squarepants, Pearl, Mr. Krabs' daughter, tries redesigning the Krusty Krab to be more 'hip' with the young crowd. Spongebob tries helping her come up with a new name for the restaurant, and alongside 'The Kowboy Krab', 'The King Krab', and 'the Kandy Krab', Spongebob pitches 'The Kool Krab', and dons the look of a beatnik◊ to go with the theme.

Several Beatniks appear in A World of Laughter, a World of Tears, in which they have to cope with persecution from the even more culturally repressive and paranoid Fifties United States of that timeline.
